Freemasonry has now become very much a family orientated organisation and although wives and female partners cannot become Freemasons in the United Grand Lodge of England, many Lodges have a very social programme of activities involving their wives and children. Should ladies wish to join Freemasonry, there is a separate Grand Lodge in England, exclusively for ladies. There are Ladies’ Clubs, eg Guildford, where the qualification for membership is to be a wife or partner of a Mason and where interesting talks and social events take place. In Surrey, Freemasons are very involved with Charity, both nationally and in their local areas, but they also take part in other activities such as sporting events; fishing, golf, go-kart racing, bowls, clay shooting and an annual family weekend, whilst at the same time supporting local youth football teams and even parachuting for charity.
